SkinPen Advanced Needling
SkinPen is a medical micro-needling (or skin-needling) device. Micro-needling is a form of collagen induction therapy that uses tiny needles to stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing response. In this response, new tissue and skin cells are formed, allowing for significant improvements to the tone and texture of the skin.
SkinPen is one of the only needling devices recognised by the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods and can only be administered by medical practitioners, ensuring the highest class of sterility and depth precision. Compared to other needling treatments, SkinPen is a medical device, which enables us to treat not only the superficial skin but acne and other scaring that require deeper penetration in the dermal layers.
The other benefit of the SkinPen is its unique, single-use needling cartridge ensuring depth and precision in every treatment. The needling cartridge also has a lockout system, which means it gets locked out once removed from the pen and cannot be put back on for further use. This further guarantees that the cartridges are strictly single-use.
Benefits
- Stimulates cell multiplication and collagen remodelling.
- Harmonises pigmentation, discolouration, melasma, or age spots.
- Breaks down scar tissue to repair acne scarring or surgical scars.
- The treatment can be performed at different depths to target specific problem areas.
- Minimal downtime is required after the treatment compared to other rejuvenation treatments.
- As SkinPen does not use any active ingredients or laser/light therapy, it is a recommended treatment for sensitive skin, darker skin tones, and acne.
Treatment guide
The number of treatments required depends on your skin type and concern. Generally, the best results come from 3 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart. A custom treatment plan that's right for you will be advised at your consultation.

Considerations
Is the treatment painful?
With the application of a topical anaesthetic gel prior to your treatment, most people find the SkinPen so comfortable that they often describe it as like 'having a face massage'. The nose area can get a little bit tickly as it vibrates a little bit, but there is no pain. After your treatment, your face will feel like it has been mildly sunburned for the next hour or two, but that quickly settles.
